Description

Bringing Language Back into Decision Theory Every human decision is articulated, recorded, repeated, and institutionalized through language. O = L^T / E introduces a unified theoretical architecture that explains how structured linguistic logic (L), temporal accumulation through repetition and learning (T), and systemic entropy or friction (E) interact to shape real-world social outcomes (O). L (Logic): The structural precision, clarity, and consistency of rules, norms, protocols, and decision heuristics. T (Time): Exponential temporal accumulation through habit, routine, organizational learning, and institutional memory. E (Entropy): Systemic friction—distinguishing harmful communication noise from necessary, protective procedural constraints. From organizational communication breakdowns and school bullying dynamics to public policy design and international conflict prevention, this book bridges language and formal strategy, translating complex institutional phenomena into a testable mathematical research architecture.
